Hello Rich, Is this true? Didn't you ship a KIS TR-1 off to China several
years ago? Did it ever fly there?
Thanks,

American homebuilt headed for China
By Alton K. Marsh
China is benefitting from American aviation companies at all levels. Chinese
citizen XueQiang Si is building a Sportsman 2+2 at Glasair's Two Weeks To
Taxi program and plans to base it in the city of Laiwu in China's Shandong
Province.
XueQiang Si said that he believes his Sportsman will be the first
experimental category aircraft to fly in the People's Republic of China.
"There is no homebuilt category in China yet," XueQiang Si said. "I will fly
it with an 'N' number first."
"It was perfect for me because I not only saved so much time in building the
aircraft, I also learned what I need to know to maintain my Sportsman,"
XueQiang Si said.
Glasair's Two Weeks to Taxi program complies with the FAA's new 51-percent
rules, allowing customers to build the high-wing four-seat Sportsman with
guidance from factory mechanics. Builders can select several choices of
engines and a variety of instruments for their panels.
XueQiang Si's Sportsman will feature Advanced Flight System LCD glass
screens with synthetic vision and a VP-200 Climate Control System.

I thought the factory TR-4 KIS Cruiser was sold and shipped to China as well.
